IT kunce, does this VPN stuff work, and if so, what's a good one to use... Criterion - effective, easy to set up, not a rip off.

Another popular one is tunnel bear

apparently, I've only played with the android one as I only use it on my tablet

but there is a windows one as well.

 

assuming it the same as the android one it just a matter of install and enter user name and password

Martin knows his shit so this will be just as good / maybe better

I pretty much only want it for downloading torrents... Keep seeing the ads on kickass/pirate bay etc... Been downloading torrents as normal without giving a f**k, but if it's only a couple $ a month to avoid any potential bullshit later then why not..

Express VPN seems to be the highest rated? $8.32/mnth for 12 months...

But do I then need to use something else to download torrents or do I just download through utorrent as normal?

Yep, VPN basically 'tunnels' you over to another network and acts like you're working / downloading from that location or network. 

I'd be trialing and making sure you get good speeds, the biggest downfall with these VPN services (mainly the free ones) is it slows your speed right down, Martin mentioned 50mbps if that's true then you'll be fine. 

Took car to suspension place, for front suspension being  abit crashy.

Advise is to replace entire coilover system, entire rear subframe, both rear wheel bearings and lockout bars galore - None of which they are willing to take on for any amount of money.

Good times.

Why didn't the Haltech alert you to this before it was an issue?

I don't wanna curse Brett with your penchant for disaster, but maybe take it to Shockworks?

I thought about this but I was under the impression the setup I had was great. Certainly felt fine, though wanted to see what the Shockworks R34 felt like. I suspected nothing was even wrong with the rear end actually. Just thought the front was hitting the stops a bit too eagerly and was a little low.

But nope, apparently the rear is so bad it'd be 'suicidal' to drive it. I'd really rather not pay $5k to get it into an approved setup lol.

They just did a coilover swap on my GTS-T and the cost was very reasonable, so I guess if it's something inevitable for you, that would be a good starting point.

To be fair if I do go the whole hog and replace shocks and springs I would consider Shockworks or MCA really as the only two options to choose from. I may get away with a new set of coils, hicas lock bars and toe arms to suit, and two rear wheel bearings.

Still somewhat shit when my initial complaint to get checked out was "hm, the front seems to be pretty happy to hit bump stops and isn't low"..

Can anyone actually recommend a suspension place that won't go "Oh it's a sedan, I see your money and your questions are beneath me and please stop lowering the property value of my amazing shop"?

as this happens quite a lot

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
